[QUOTE="Nightfall, post: 1756088, member: 374"] Being dead often does that. Sokay. It happens. I just happen to know its not out and doubtful it will be out any time soon. Short answer, yes. Longer answer: Other than the fact there are significant changes to eliminating a good number of GW planes, the Scarred Lands cosmology is relatively similar to that of the GW. However the Astral and the Etheral do not connect to each other. Therefore you can't pass from an Outer/Divine Plane into an Elemental one using the Etheral/Astral connection. Not quite that bad. There are significant differences to what's in the Scarred Lands cosmology to what's in the GW, but it's mostly physical and reflective of the nature of the world. I'd say having only 18 gods (not counting the ressurrection of Jandevos), is pretty finite. But you can always add more. I just prefer a tight but loose fitting panethon as it stands now. No. We don't need something as redundant as that. The Titans helped to shape the present cosmos. (Although the Slacerians might have something to say about that as well...being Godminds and all...) So no freaking Ao running around golfing and/or being CEO of this world. Not quite as you'd know them but yes they do exist. The Arch Devils are mostly in charge of keeping track of souls, bartering on behalf of Chardun (the LE god of the Iron Hells), and generally following Chardun's orders. Demon Lords/Princes DO exist but like their Arch devil companions, they aren't name Demogorgon or Orcus. Thus there is room for BoVD type stuff but generally not as we know it in the GW. However doesn't mean you can't have them there. Just means that things change. Example, the "Abyss" of the Scarred Lands doesn't circle down into 6,666 layers. It's just one massive layer with lots of room for things to change and grow depending on the power of the Demons. (Vangal though might come by and wreck things so be warned.) Same is true of the Iron Hells. Just one level. But that does mean each Demon Prince/Arch Devil can be much closer and use their armies in larger skirmishes than just sending off random demons and such. Also one special aspect to the Scarred Lands cosmology is the Zodiac Planes. These are basically demiplaines associated with a Zodiac sign. They can only be accessed via the month they are in ascendence. [/QUOTE]
